Abstract

Purpose – Learning loss remains a concern in Indonesian higher education after the pandemic, while LMS-based early warning systems remain limited for timely intervention. This study designs and evaluates a hybrid LSTM–XGBoost framework for early prediction of simulated LMS-based learning-loss risk, prioritizing architectural innovation over metric superiority. Methods – Using 6,440 synthetic LMS records structured from publicly documented Sevima EdLink log fields, early risk was predicted from weeks 1–4 features and labeled at week 6 with behavioral proxy rules. An 80:20 group-aware train–test split by student identifier used leakage-safe, training-only scaling and one-hot encoding. Models were compared as an untuned architectural benchmark with matched-feature ablations, approximate confidence intervals, calibration/threshold analysis, and feature importance inspection. Findings – The temporal-only LSTM model produced the strongest overall predictive performance, while the LSTM with static-feature fusion showed comparable results. The hybrid LSTM–XGBoost decision stage remained competitive but did not outperform the matched LSTM configurations or demonstrate a clear advantage over simpler baseline models. Ablation analysis further showed that neither static-feature integration nor the use of XGBoost as the final decision engine provided a meaningful performance improvement. Changes in engagement, feedback activity, interaction patterns, and early time-on-task emerged as the most influential simulated indicators of learning-loss risk. Research Implications – The hybrid architecture offers a replicable blueprint for LMS early-warning pipelines that separate temporal extraction (LSTM) from risk classification (XGBoost). Institutional use requires real LMS validation, recall optimization, and ethical compliance. Originality – This simulation-based late-fusion LSTM–XGBoost blueprint separates the prediction window (weeks 1–4) from the outcome window (week 6) and evaluates architectural contribution.
